2007 GENERAL BYLAWS AVAILABLE ON CD OR VIA E-MAIL

The 2007 General Bylaws are now available on CD or via e-mail in PDF format.

If you made a donation to the Memorial Building Endowment Fund last year for the previous Bylaws CD, please return that CD to Bylaws Committee Chairman Gail Robinson at 579 Quicksilver Trail, Fort Mill, SC 29708-6507, and an updated version will be sent to you in exchange. If you prefer, you may have the 2007 Bylaws e-mailed to you as a PDF attachment.

Those who have not made a $10.00 donation may do so now. Please make your check payable to the Treasurer General UDC, write “Memorial Building Endowment Fund” on the memo line, and mail it to the General Chairman of the Bylaws Committee at the address given above. Be sure to indicate whether you want the CD or the e-mail version (if the latter, be sure to provide your e-mail address).

A late editorial change prevented the planned distribution of the CDs at Spring Board. The Committee extends its sincerest apologies for the delay.
